Not a historian, but to my knowledge, this is the first time a sitting US Senator — or member of Congress, generally — or perhaps any senior US gov’t official — has included an f-bomb in an official press release.

I mean very obviously Hegseth should resign, and if it were a Democratic administration this would be quickly be a consensus position.

If Democrats want to regain working people, they must disavow Big Money.

That starts with banning super PAC donations in Dem primaries.

There’s no way the party can speak for the majority of working people in America if it's beholden to corporate interests.

Let me emphasize: Elon Musk has not been confirmed by Congress. His “department” was never actually enacted. No one other than Trump has given him any authority.

Democrats and any Republicans with a spine need to step in and stop this madness.

Can someone let ICE know an immigrant has broken into the US Treasury?

The world’s richest man who no one elected just walked into the US Treasury, stole your Social Security number, and Trump let him. You deserve to know why this is happening - call your member of Congress and Senators (202) 224-3121 and ask why.

Want to know what a federal funding freeze does? It takes money from families that just lost their home in a wildfire. It takes resources away from vets. It leaves 72M Americans without access to healthcare. Trump, Elon, & their billionaire buddies laugh their way to the bank while Americans suffer.

Democrats should not vote on a single Trump cabinet nominee until this federal assistance freeze is rescinded.

Do not let up.

Pete Hegseth is the most unqualified nominee for Secretary of Defense in modern history.

He should be rejected by the Senate.

Of course ending birthright citizenship is blatantly unconstitutional. So is a third term in office.

But I thought the same thing about presidential criminal immunity and holding office after inciting an insurrection.

The obvious is not so obvious anymore.

This shake down of TikTok is Trump’s long con.

Trump started the TikTok ban, but has now flipped-flopped to play the hero while looking to enrich new owners (his donors).

There is nothing in this post about protecting American’s data, Trump’s original justification for the ban.
